Celebrating Excellence in Research

The multidisciplinary Collaborative European Research Conference (CERC) is an annual event that takes place since 2011 when it was initiated by University partners across Europe. It brings together researchers from a wide range of disciplines in order to foster knowledge transfer, inter-disciplinary exchange and collaboration.

We invite researchers to submit extended abstracts or full papers and to attend the conference. We especially welcome early stage researchers to present new research topics.

In previous years, contributions came from computer science, biology, bioinformatics, business information systems, marketing, IT-security, civil engineering, education, psychology, multimedia, art, etc. Contributing students came from Ireland, Germany, England, Wales, Northern Ireland, Norway, France, USA, etc. Accepted contributions will be published in digital proceedings with an ISSN number - it is intended that publications shall be submitted to CEUR-WS for online publication, indexed among other at DBLP, Scopus, Semantic Scholar and Google Scholar. A prize for the best paper will be awarded during the conference closing on September 11, 2020.

This year, we will invite IEEE Distinguish Lecturers to deliver Keynotes. Eight tracks have been confirmed to run in the conference:

Industry & Start-ups

Autonomous Mobility

Natural language processing and its applications

Cyber security and privacy

IOT and pervasive computing

Biomedical image processing

Systems biology and biomedicine

Big data analytics for Sustainable Society

An European research networking session will be held during the conference.
